    One class reading: a description of the habits, experiences and attitudes of Year Nine boys
    Andrews, Elizabeth Joan ( 1996)
    In this study one Year Nine class in an inner city Catholic boys school was examined using a questionnaire, selective interviews and an attitude scale. The issues being investigated were their experiences and attitudes regarding their leisure reading. There was a special focus on fiction. This thesis does not aim to identify causal relationships rather to describe the experience of the class in detail and to identify areas for further action, both in relation to study and working with the students.
